Will VMWare Workstation 14 or 15 run with i5-2400 Intel processor or not?












0














I have heard various stories either way - some people say yes, some say no, and if they say yes, they said they have had "problems" installing or using it - without clarification.



So the question is: Will VMWare Workstation 14 or 15 run with i5-2400 Intel processor or not ? That's a Sandy Bridge architecture.



Intel's site for the processor says it supports VT-X but as I said some people say they have experienced "issues".



Thank you.

  • I am using Workstation Pro 12 and experiencing no problems. I am worried that upgrading to 14/15 will cause issues as I have a fairly old CPU - Sandy Bridge. I havent tried 14/15 yet - is it worth it to even upgrade ? Is there anything worth upgrading for ?
